Battlegroup

Battlegroup is an entertaining card game of strategy and chance based on World  War II (1939 – 1945) naval combat, when fleets combined the awesome firepower of  traditional battleships with long-range bombing strikes from aircraft carriers. Players  determine when and how to seek combat; to use daylight for smashing carrier air  strikes through defending fighters and dense anti-aircraft fire or, to use the dark of  night for quick and devastating surface attacks with the battleships’ big guns.  Submarines, destroyers, mines and torpedo boats also all play their roles. Two to four players command squadrons of battleships and aircraft carriers form  the Allied Powers (Britain, France, and the United States) and the Axis Powers  (Germany, Italy, and Japan), and the side that scores the most victory points by  “sinking” enemy vessels and winning sorties wins the game. This is an exciting and fun  card game where every playing is different. Components Include: 32 card Allied Ship Deck 32 card Axis Ship Deck 64 card Action Deck 6 Dice Wooden Markers Rulebook
